About

From SAD to Raw is a hub for information on transitioning from the Standard American Diet (SAD) to living a more “raw” way of life — a healthier, vegetarian or vegan, mostly raw lifestyle.

S.A.D:

The Standard American Diet is basically what and how most Americans eat nowadays, whether they consume meat or not.

Their foods include pretty much anything the “raw” lifestyle does not: grilled, broiled, fried, breaded, processed, preserved, fatty foods that are not naturally made and prepared.

RAW:
Living the raw lifestyle, on the other hand, means eating 60%-80% uncooked vegetarian diet. Many raw foodists believe that one must eat at least 75% raw foods to be considered a true raw foodist, while some raw foodists believe that to be a true raw foodist your diet must consist of 100% raw foods. It’s up to you to decide what “percentage raw” you will be.
